It will be riddled with monetisation, with the attendant mission/quest structure to support that goal. Like, it's an impossibility that it won't be. Starfield was on the verge of getting some good will back from the player base, but squandered it on that bullshit pay-per-quest DLC they released recently. Bethesda is beyond help at this point.

Truly, because on top of that it will compete with The Elder Scrolls MMO for income and have much of the same whaled playerbase interested in it.
